The best by miles

with not doing a lot of driving it's great insurance for me last month i paid less than £2 and I paid £91 a month with Hastings Reviewed on: 11th August 2020

So far, so painless...

I’m a fairly new customer so not yet sure how much of an annual saving this will make. Nor had any reason to contact customer services, so don’t know how good they'd be if any problem arose. The gismo is easy to fit ONCE you know where it goes - the instructions were completely incorrect! It’s a bit alarming to see the full details of every trip I’ve driven is logged - shades of Big Brother... I’m not hugely comfortable with that, but needs must, I suppose. It’s good to have fully comp much more cheaply than just 3rd party last year. Reviewed on: 11th August 2020

Open, honest, and helpful insurance

5
By Miles is open about the way it charges it's premiums and honest about everything covered in the policies - there is nothing hidden. When I had issues setting up, a talk to the customer service quickly resolved the issue. I have already recommended By Miles to friends Reviewed on: 11th August 2020

A different way to insure.

5
A different and innovative way of insuring your vehicle, which can work out a lot cheaper for low mileage users. Highly recommended. Reviewed on: 11th August 2020

Simplicity at its best

5
Ok so not only were they the cheapest (based on the maximum it could possibly cost for a year), their app is brilliant and if you need to speak to customer services they are available. When my renewal comes round it’s going to take something pretty remarkable to make me switch. Reviewed on: 11th August 2020

Excellent

5
It was just the type of insurance I was looking for especially as I don’t use my car that much pay as you go insurance how cool is that. Reviewed on: 11th August 2020
